  yesterday, my brother had his jeep towed in to my shop for repair.

  about the time he arrived i was ready to eat so i took him with me to fuddruckers and we sat at the table and drank beer for lunch.

  that was the first time i have ever drank with my brother, and honestly i can't remember the last time we just talked one on one.

  i am due in the middle of october and my husband and i cannot come up with a name.

  i almost had him sold on venus, until he asked people at work what they thought and he got wierd looks.

  i wanted to name the last baby sidney, but let him name her because he has never gotten a chance to name a kid before.

  What about this:

  There is just one God, with three personalities, God himself, Jesus and the Holy Spirit. So basically, the Creator has some form of schizophrenia?

  That could explain the gaps in the bible and why Jesus keeps praying to somebody he does not realize is him?

  I think Cybil should be contacted and questioned about this.

  Trinity....thought up hundreds and hundreds of years after Jesus walked the earth...some many other pagan religions had some form of trinity, why not apply it to Christianity?

  As for words being changed and left out, Bibleboy, do you think that the NWT is the ONLY bible that does not have perfect translation??

  eating fruit: when eve and then adam ate the fruit, they were given the death penalty and low productivity yield from their food growing efforts.

  but, they did get a nice long life, somewhere around 900-930 years.. murder: cain murdered his own brother, abel.

  cain whines to jehovah about how severe his punishment is, too great to bear, and jehovah consents to put a mark on him so that no one will harm cain.

  The God described in the old testament certainly does not seem very loving. It is very hard to try to relate him to the God of the New Testatment.

  Help - elder just called!

  by JW83 in

  hi guys, an elder who just moved into my local (slack) cong just called to find out how i was going spiritually!

  i haven't been to meetings for a year and no one else has ever cared, even though i was aux pio'ing at the time i stopped.

  he is coming over with his wife one day, he said.

  Blue,

  actually, it is not unreasonable for the new elder to think he and his wife cannot ask for a visit to encourage him. At least not in any congregation I have been associated with. It actually is caring...and I agree with Arg that if the wife is coming it is only for encouragement and getting to know him.

  Why make a big issue? If you really do not want to meet with the elder, just say, no you do not have time, but that you appreciate his concern and wish him well. Say you have some personal issues that you do not feel comfortable talking about and that you will make sure you introduce yourself the next time you are at the hall.

  Save yourself some stress...there is no need to get confrontational if you are not ready to DA yourself.
